Soy-Miso Marinated Garlic

(from largomason’s recipe box)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon white miso paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 garlic bulb, cloves separated and peeled
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Directions

  1. Stir the soy sauce into the miso paste, breaking the miso apart as you stir. Stir the sugar into the soy sauce mixture. Add in the peeled garlic cloves and the oil. Heat the mixture in a small pot on the stove over medium heat. Bring just to a simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, and carefully pour mixture in a small jar with a tight fitting lid. Store the jar in the fridge for 2 weeks before using.

  2. Soy-Miso Garlic can be used as a simple condiment as it is, or, puree in a small food processor and use as a spread over chicken, fish, or bread. Stir a spoonful into some rice, or into Thai peanut sauce.
